Just installed my angled riser for a dewedge and my riptide 87a canon and magnum bushings and what happens on the 1st ride? I hit a huge crack at big speed and snapped the pivot pin of my dickyho paris trucks.
I reeeeeally dont wanna have to wait for new trucks. China shipping takes forever, any suggestions on a fix? I’m thinking JBweld, but I’m concerned about the strength
Please take this as a learning opportunity and get better trucks. The china paris clones are NOT safe in our application. I’d only ever run them on a lightweight, low power, low speed build (think china esc, china batteries, hubs, etc), or better yet, the bench.
Swap front truck to back truck remount mounts for now and order some proper trucks from Boardnamics and some new dickyho mounts or some boardnamics mounts
Glad your ok, exactly why I don’t trust any of that too cheep to be true stuff, all I can suggest is just get a solid name brand next time and don’t try and repair it don’t want u getting hurt
Sounds like his motors are too wide for normal paris trucks. @Turbo I suggest you bite the bullet and use the front truck and mounts for a test bench and buy some next level hangers and mounts. ~$160 gets you some TB, kahua or boardnamics hangers + mounts. Worlds better.
I would say these are faulty, like any truck that fails on first ride … contact @dickyho see what he says, I am a tad embarrassed to say I’ve put those Paris extended on my @MarkOneBoards deck and I’ve been messing jumping with them on @rey8801 adj plates so far so good - I was really thinking last night how well they are doing for the abuse I’m giving them (I do a static 180 hops on concrete regularly lol) . They should never break ride one and and if mine did I would chase a refund.
